Oh hey,
didn’t see you there.
Kemper Sauce Studios
We’re a Cincinnati based arts and engineering collective with an inventive drive and a whole list of bad ideas.
Our team members embody a wide spread of engineering expertise; From audio to software to electrical engineering, our skills give us the know-how to tackle big concepts and design whole experiences from the ground up. We have a real passion for creating fun things and tackling difficult problems, and our installation projects allow us to do both, with extra sauce.
